OPENING LINES TO LARA, ;:

Unpublished poem by Lord Byron
When she is gone, the loved, the best, the one
Whose smile has gaddened though perchance
undOne;
Whose name too dearly cherished to impart,
Dies on the lip but trembles in the heart:
Whose sudden mention can almost convuIse
And Tighten through the ungovernable pulse
Till the heart leaps so keenly to the word
We fear that throb can hardly beat unheard
Then sinks ut once beneath that sickly Chill
That follows when we find her absent still;
When such is gone. too far again to bless,
Oh, God! how slowly comes forgetfulneSs:
Let none complain how faithleSs and how
grief
The brains remembranceo Of the bosom grief; ;
Or~ere theysthus forbid Us TO forget.
i % Mercy strip tue memory OF regret.
Yet--Selfsh still-we would not be forgot
What lip dare say, My love remember not?''
Oh best and dearest. whose thrilling name
My heart adores too deeply TO proclaim.
Ny memory, almost ceasing TO repiue,
Would mount to hope if once secure OF
thine.
Meantime the tale weave must mourrful be,
AS absence to the heart that lives on thee

The Cascade Tunnel.

Nelson Bennett says that last
month on the west end of the Cas-
csde tunnel his workmen made 217
feet through a wall plate in the tun-
mel. Mr.. Bennett claims this is the
best record OF tunnelling ever made
in America under similar circum-
stances. By a wall plate means q
place where the ground is so bad that
timbering has to be constructed on
the top of the first bench Immediately
in the heading and at the extreme
face OF the tunnel Torkmen, there
fore, have to do all their shooting and
heavy blasting under these timbers
without knocking down the timber
work. The east end is doing equally
as welfnow, although they were de-
lsyed some last month. The tunnel
is now bored about 5000 feet. and Mr..
Bennett expects to finish it by June
OF 1888.-TGc0niG Ledger.

A FINANCIAL SUGGESTION.

ABOUT three and a half years ago
school district No. One in this city
strained its financial back by the Is
suance of large number of bonds to
build the fine school on Court street
which is a splendid advertisement OF
the place and an ornament to the
city. These bonds are drawing eight
per cent. interest. They represent to-
day about $4,000 that the district
owes. and are payable in July, 1893.
The AsroR1AN suggests that this
district debt be refunded. 1t would
be in the line of economy to have the
debt legalized in due form by the leg
islature, and reissue made OF bonds
to the amount of the debt, drawing
say six per cent. interest or, possibly,
five. This would effect an annual
saving of $500 at 6 per cent, or $500
at 5 per cent, and if necessary or
feasible, the time of maturity could
be extended.
We believe that an arrangement oi
this kind could readily be made, that
the holders of the bonds would sur
render them and receive in lieu, Other
bonds at q considerably lower rate oi
interest, and we suggest that such
action be taken.
Where the faith Of a city or q
school district is pledged as security
where the amount is comparatively
large, and the time OF payment COM
paratively remote, it is not financial
ly wise to pay what is, really, high
rate of interest Money is plentier
and easier and four and five per cent
investments are in such cases sought.
Six per cent. is certainly good inter
est on such investment as school
bonds, and it seems to us that the
example Of the city, which has just
refunded $4,000 debt at a reduction
of from ten per cent. to six per cent.
per annum interest charge, is good
example to follow.
